Becoming a father isn't difficult,But it's very difficult to be a father.
"Heinrich Christian Wilhelm Busch" was a German humorist, poet, illustrator and painter. He published comic illustrated cautionary tales from 1859, achieving his most notable works in the 1870s. Busch's illustrations used wood engraving, and later, zincography.
Busch drew on contemporary Parochialism/parochial and city life, satirizing Catholicism, Philistinism, strict religious morality and bigotry. His comic text was colourful and entertaining, using onomatopoeia, neologisms and other figure of speech/figures of speech, and led to some work being Book censorship/banned by the authorities.
Busch was influential in both poetry and illustration, and became a source for future generations of comics/comic artists. The Katzenjammer Kids was inspired by Busch's Max and Moritz, one of a number of imitations produced in Germany and the United States. The Wilhelm Busch Prize and the Wilhelm Busch Museum help maintain his legacy. His 175th anniversary in 2007 was celebrated throughout Germany. Busch remains one of the most influential poets and artists in Western Europe.
More Wilhelm Busch on Wikipedia.In the meantime, on the sly,Something's going on up high.Max has shown some foresight here,For he brought his fishing gear.
Youth should heed the older-wittedWhen they say, don't go too far --Now their sins are all committed,Lord, how virtuous they are!
Up high, the flies are playing,And frolicking, and swaying.The frog thinks: Dance! I knowYou'll end up here below.
Music is always noise-relatedAnd often not appreciated.
Max and Moritz for their part found no attraction in it.
